Never a dull moment around you, huh? I'm such an obsessive planner that I always know everything months in advance. It's fun to watch your trip(s) evolve!

 

[wigdoutdismom]

So no changes today?

Congrats on adding another day AND staying at the resort you want to! I'm so happy for you girls!

I am so happy that we are able to get some nights at POFQ.

YAY for another day and night and for
PORFQ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's great that you added an extra day! I love your photos & I get a hoodie every trip, too. I'm hooked on hoodies...I'm half expecting an intervention by my family soon.

I love hoodies too. I've gotten a little bit better about buying them all time.

Oh LL, it is so fun TRYING to keep up with you and your trip plans!!! I love it! I am thinking that POFQ is going to be GREAT. I am glad your split stay worked out!!! Bravo for you! And I can't wait to hear all about your ADRs, etc!!! YAY!

I'm at the point where I'm going to give myself an intervention because I'm starting to become really confused.

Congrats on POFQ and an extra day! I've been in my lurking mode (disney funk), but have to admit reading your excitement is changing that around My Princess and the Frog CD should be at home delivered from amazon when I get there after work!

I am having luggage envy. One. I need a good carry on suitcase. I am always paranoid it will be to big, even the little ones. Two. You started packing, our trip is a surprise, so I have to wait until Christmas for the big reveal, that includes keeping the suitcases in their usual spot

I love your shampoo bottles- where did you get those? Please say online so I can order some ( wait they probably won't ship to Canada )

Looking forward to the update - oh and reminder ABC is showing Prep and Landing tonight - new Disney Christmas special. My DD "called it" for our tv viewing tonight

Oh, I was in a big Disney funk about a month ago when I didn't think I'd be able to go in January. I'm out of it now.

I got those shampoo bottles from Walmart. They were 97 cents or something like that. Can you get them delivered to you? If not, you let me know and I can mail them to you.

Nope, it's never a dull moment. I bet you get why Jen has taken over the planning for January.

Not yet....

Mine too! I knew you'd love the travel size items!

See, I do too...then I change them 50 million times.

So no changes today?

Not yet....though I was on the phone with Disney Reservations last night.

I'm so glad you guys are getting to stay at POFQ. I know you are going to love it!!!!!!!!

I am still toying with the idea of a short Jan trip, but just can't possibly swing it over the weekend. The flights are just too much dinero. If I go I have to make it the cheapest trip on earth. Like - so cheap I need to eat PB&J.

I don't know what happened with the flight prices!!! Southwest was offering great deals, we paid $150 round trip!! I was so excited to get tickets that cheap!! $150 roundtrip, WOW!!! The day after I book those tickets the prices for both of our flights went up to $129 one way!!!! Ummmm, that's $258 roundtrip!!!!!!! We wouldn't be going!

What's new today?

I really wish you could go, that would be awesome. But if not, we'll meet up in October, right?

If I hadn't had my credit from September there would be no way I could afford flights right now. They are all over the place. When I originally booked the flights were $79 one way but then they jumped again. Craziness.

What's new today?

Nothing...yet. I even made Jen call today during her lunch break thinking she might have better room luck then me. NOPE. I'm happy with staying at Pop those last two nights but it KILLS me that I'm paying more that Pop room than I am the discounted room at POFQ.

 

[Mickey_Mom]

Caught up using your links worship: thank you!) and I can't believe you get to stay at POFQ! I am sooooo happy for you two! And the added day....

Two more sleeps to the Princess and the Frog!

Hey!! We are very excited!!

I can't decide when I'm going to go see the movie...but I do know that I'm going to see it this weekend.

 

[Lady Lallie]

It's time to discuss our new and improved itinerary. But please don't get too attached LOL!!!!!!

Can I just say that all of these itinerary changes are getting confusing? Jen and I royally confused ourselves the other day, we couldn't remember what day we were doing what since we had flipped everything around. I had totally forgotten that I had made new ADRs, Jen knew it. I just thought she was crazy. Turns out...I'm the crazy one. Well when you are trying to keep me straight on everything no wonder it was confusing LOL!!! I'm just glad we got it all straightened out!!!

I'm going to post half of our itinerary today and then the other half in the next update. Only because Leslie is having patience with me and allowing me to comment throughout...but like any teacher knows...I have definitely been given deadlines LOL!!!!

I'm still expecting to see guesses for our mystery ADR on our last full day. Ahem. Yes, please make guesses...It's like a game show and I LOVE game shows!!!

Thursday January 14th for Leslie:
*Leave work @ 3PM
*Depart @ 6:30PM
*Arrive Orlando @ 10PM

Thursday January 14th for Jen: WORK...but its only a half day of work because of midterm exams...WOOT so I'll be spending the day grading and entering grades into the system LOL! Doesn't that sound exciting!

Meeko just posted about his breakfast at Cape May the other day and it made us decide that we should eat there. Meeko...be proud you have joined a very long list of DIS enablers...they are some of my favorite people in all of the world...now if you were to ask Prince P the same thing....well

We might take a break between AK and Jiko. We don't foresee ourselves staying here for the entire day, but who knows. Maybe we'll take a trip to DTD before going to AK and then stay until AK closing at 6PM. I know Jen really wants to get down to DTD. Whatever gave you this idea, I mean I only mention it in every email I send you...mostly LOL I like that we have a guideline of plans but I think we will be flexible too depending on what we feel like doing at the time. YAY me too!!!! I'm getting more and more excited everyday!!!

Oh and I'm very serious about the mystery ADR. We are not telling what it is until we get someone who guesses correctly.

 

[kschafer]

I have heard that they do not do the cowboy scene on the GMR all the time, but when they do, it is always the front car. To make sure you are in the front car, you have to get in the right "corral" as you enter the room with all the movie clips. Unfortunately, I'm not sure which one that is but I bet if you asked on the attractions forum, someone will be able to tell you!

Mystery ADR? Hmm...I'm going to go with Artist Point (I'm trying to think of someplace neither of you have been but I have NO idea if this even fits that category )

 

[Charleston Princess]

You are very cruel leaving us in suspense about the mystery ADR.

Hmmm, I might need to wander over and look at Meeko's review of Cape May. That sounds fun.

 

[meeko_33785]

Cape May was actually going to be my guess for the mystery ADR until I saw that it was alread on your itinerary. I hope you have a really great time there- I know we did.

Now for that mystery ADR... I don't even know where to begin guessing. It's not Park Fare, is it? Or maybe The Wave? I guess I need a hint.

The deal with the Cowboy scene is that both trams have to be running, meaning that you load up with people being seating in the two long trams, so the 4 sections completey, then there are two CM's. The first CM is the cowboy scene, the second is the gangster scene. If only one CM is out, then that means you could get either scene. Wow, that's confusing.

Nope, not Aritist Point.

Yes, I like to be mean.

I can't wait for Cape May....YUM!

Nope, not Park Fare or The Wave. Keep trying.

I will give a hint in the next update if no one has guessed it by then.

You are such a sweetheart. I will have a look and if I need your pixie dust help, I'll PM you! . I am ticked you would offer, smiling and touched! Thank you
